How Dumb Of Me…!!!

By the title you must have judged that I have done something really stupid…!! Well I have !! The incident goes like this……

We had a Project Submission which was supposed to be given on Wednesday, 17th January, But the Sir gave a option of postponing it to Saturday. And I like a Dumb fellow agreed to postpone it, although the whole class was against it, thinking that we will get more time to prepare for it, everyone agreed.

So you must be wondering what is the Dumbest Thing I have done…Well, 20 January, Saturday, happens to be my BIRTHDAY…Now you get it..!!

That means, work on the Birthday..That is what I hate the most…So I guess, no option left. So I will have to work on that day as well…

And now since I have told you that its my birtday on 20th Jan, So I expect that you will wish atleast..though If you are feelingto give me gifts then I will accept that as well…

Gayatri & Me…

It was 13th June, 1998, when the School re-opens after a Summer Vaccation. I was promoted to 6th Standard. I was all excited about the first day of school as evereyone else, with new Uniform, New Bag, New Books and a New Academic Year ahead……

Our Class Teacher gave us our places to sit…I was made to sit beside this girl named Gayatri, I dont remeber much about the first few things we spoke..But what i do remember is that we were quite different..We dint click instantly…We had fights almost every week for all the silly reasons possible..though at that time the reasons were not important…What really was important was WINNING the argument…Which she always did…!

The one out of the few things which I remember about the fights is our so called PARTITION..She used to divide ur bench in to 2 Un-equal Halves….Obviously she having the greater half for her-self…..I wasnt allowed to keep my books or pens on her side.Though she had the right & authority to do so simply Because ‘ IT WAS HER BENCH..!’

That year passed by, our fights decreased, we started to understand each other better…( I tried atleast….) Soon we started helping each other…Or I can say that she started helping me…Coz she was the Good Students Type and I was kind of the ones who used to enjoy the classes by doing all other things other than studying…She helped me in completing the Books and other ‘N’ number of things…..

Next Year, 7th Standard was a bit different, we were asked to again share the bench. But this time, few things were different. We knew each other well, so was a bit happy…( Atleast I was, and I am sure she was too…Hope so..) This year too , we had equal share of fights, but this year i too started winning….

The same way other few years passed……But of all the years the days I very well remember is RAKSHA BANDHAN…very fondly she used to tie me a Rakhi and infact she used to ensure that she was the first one to tie the Rakhi……I used to love that day……..

Then, she used to torture me to remember her birthday, that is on 20 May……ohh sorry 21st May…..hehehehe……….though after few years i managed to remember her birthday, but then i used to forget to call her up…( But i guess it happened only once, maybe in 8th Standard…)
Though she never forget my birthday…(Thanks for that…!!)

Then, there were days when we really had fun in our class, pulling each other legs or irritating other people….

But then, there was a serious side of her too, which I saw in 9th standard…she stated getting damn serious about my studies, about getting my note books, Journals completed on time….(hated her this side….hehehehe…)

She helped me on other issues as well, apart from studies… She was the first person whom I used to tell about my crushes..(And she very conviniently used to make fun of it…she enjoyed teasing me with them a lot…..) But then, she also helped when I really needed it without me asking for it….

Even today, when she is far away in United Kingdom, she is still able to help me out from there..When we speak over the phone, it just seems that she is just few minutes away from me…(Though that feeling goes after few minutes when we disconnect our call…) And now I started to miss her a lot…Just waiting for her term to get over and meet her as soon as possible….

The motive behind writing this post is to just to thank her for everything…Right from supporting me, solving my problems, motivating me in my studies and carreer, helping me passing exams..( and you know how….hehehe)

‘ I Just Want To Thank You For All The Things That You Have Done For ME, Knowingly Or Unknowlingly…And You Have Been The BEST SISTER Anyone could ever have…!! ‘

A Busy Week Ahead…

Today, after ages I steped in NIIT. It was long back in June, 2004, that I had join this Course named Management of Information Systems. The duration was supposed to be a year, but thanks to my excellent attendance that it has been going for about 2 & half years now. Everytime I step in to the Online Class Rooms, each student looks at me and try to recollect where had they seen me last, though they always manage to remember my name. My Professor, Mr. Arun, looks at me and asks me the same question as he has done since the last 2 years, “After a long time Mr. Salman!! Where have you been??” and I have been giving him the same answer for months ” Actually Sir I was just about to leave and I fell ill…and couldnt recover for months..!!”
Though today was a tough day, after wasting my whole morning in college without any lectures happening, thanks to our Professor. Came to know that we have our University Viva on the 19th January, 9 days left..have to start studying…
Back to NIIT, today I was told that we are supposed to give 2 presentations in the coming week, that is Monday & Wednesday, then a Exam on Friday. Realising it is too less time and unfair for students, I was about to stand up for each of them to argue for this, but then it was brought to my notice by a girl sitting behind that the project had been given few months. I thought to my self for a minute, and started to think how the hell am i supposed to do that, specially after hardly attending his lectures…

Now, I will have to spend another few sleepless nights, sitting with my books trying to figure out the meaning of each & every sentence, the techniques, the working, how to create tables, managing the database and another ‘N’ no, of things. No other option left I guess.

However, I think I will have to start preparing for the WAR AGAINST NIIT…!!And I just hope that i end up winning the war. One last exam and i will be able to complete my One Year Course tough in a span of 2 & a half years…Then no more anwsering to the questions of the Professors, and no more enetring the class late, atleast at NIIT…!!!

But, I just have a million dollar question, and I guess every student has…” WHY DO THEY HAVE TO KEEP EXAMS TO MARK THE END OF A SEMESTER..?”

Hello World!

Well, never thought that i would be writiing this. I Am not sure for whom I am writting also, maybe just the pleasure of having my views on the global pages. First of all, I would like to say that I have been highly inspired and motivated by my friend, Megha. Had she been not there, I would had never been doing this. So, I would like to thank her for this & also for being a very good friend.
Since it happens to be my first post, I would like to introduce myself to you all.
I am Salman Khan, and yes thats my real name. So no doubt on that, since many people tend to think that I am just joking. As of now I am doing my Bachelors in Management Studies, not too sure about what I will be doing after that, though I have been planning for my MBA. Hope so that it goes the way planned. I love Guitars. Its kind of love of my life. I bought my first Guitar on 22nd of May, 06 with my very first salary of my life. So it happens to be very close to my heart. I am also planning to buy a new guitar on my birthday, but lets see. I love to ride bikes, specially at nights. I dream of owning a Sportsbike in future. I have a younger sister named Tasmia, whom i very fondly call Gudia. She is too close to me, though we do have our share of fights, but then who doesnt ? Also, I am very close to my parents, respect them a lot. Love my dad a lot, though I have never been able to express it.

I dont make friends easily, but when i do make, i see to it that its for life. I am kind of very shy with new people, need some time to open up. I do need some constant attention, though I never try hard to get it. I am very happy with the set of friends of i have. You can say that i hav about three set of friends which includes my Building Friends who are Uday, like my younger brother, then Khalid bhai, Navin Bhai, Sonu Bhai, whom i respect as my elder brothers. Have hell lot of fun with them. Then there are School Friends, which include Gayatri, she has been my Best friend & the best sister anyone could ever have , has supported on N number of issues all through the life. Miss her a lot because now she is continents away studying in UK. I wish her all the best in life and miss her a lot. Then there are Nisarg, Vibhav, Rohit, Mansi and many others. Then there is group of my college people, which include Faizan, Sadaf, Aiman, Kashaf, Osaid, Naved, Pritesh, Deya, Raksha and many others
Dont like to read books, but have to read the syllabus books, so cant help with that.

I guess thats too much about me. So I am finally ready with my very first Blog…..
